Or is some cases, how it does not fit into the grid. For Texas citizens to be effective advocates for renewable energy, we need a deep understanding of how the grid works. Tracy has an extensive background in renewable energy as it relates to the grid, and is currently the chair of the North Texas Renewable Energy Group, an affiliate of the Texas Solar Energy Society.
